Parkour Land and Roll

Parkour Land and Roll

Atterrissage or réception
Landing
Bending the knees when toes make contact with ground (never land flat footed; always land on toes and ball of your foot).



Roulade
Roll
A forward roll where the hands, arms and diagonal of the back contact the ground. Used primarily to transfer the momentum/energy from jumps and to minimise impact preventing a painful landing. Identical to the basic Kaiten of martial arts such as Judo, Ninjutsu, Jujitsu, and Aikido.
